Hello,

I've downloaded latest bitcoin software and it works great on one of my Ubuntu 10.10 computer.

Sadly, on two other computers (same Ubuntu 10.10), I have the following error :


../src/gtk/settings.cpp(276): assert "font.IsOk() && wxFontEnumerator::IsValidFacename(font.GetFaceName())" failed in GetFont().


What's wrong ?

Well, changing the font in the Appearance setting was enough to solve the problem. Weird but, at least, it works.

maybe missing font packages that make one font valid on a system and invalid on the other one ?

I get this problem (Ubuntu 10.4, bitcoin 0.3.19 built from src). Not too keen on having to override my font preferences to avoid it.

Will try and debug at some point.

It was caused, I think, because I had been using Ubuntu fonts in beta. When released, the name of the TTF changed but was still the old name in my preferences.

It was still working everywhere but in bitcoin. Strange.
